We have have a few LoCo teams request sub forums here at ubuntuforums and we are glad to help you with your LoCo forum.

The LoCo forum we setup for you will be managed by you. We will give you certain permissions to maintain your forum. In the event you need to have a user banned please contact one of the forums administrators to facilitate this for you.

Forum Permissions Include:

3. Open/Close Threads and posts
4. Move threads
5. Merge Threads
6. Post announcements in your forum

Since the LoCo forum will be managed by you for your team, you are welcomed to speak your native language in your forum. Please keep in mind the rest of the ubuntuforums is English only. Also please keep in mind users must follow the official forum guidelines when posting, we try to maintain a friendly environment for everyone.
